The only person identifying the most recent Mystery Photo was Allan Peel of San Antonio, Tex.  He wrote: “Today’s mystery photo is of a red-brick sculpture called By Land, By Sea, By Air that was created by Brad Spencer of North Carolina. It is part of the larger Bamberg County Veterans Memorial Park that was completed in 2020 along the City of Bamberg-owned old railroad berm that runs parallel to U.S. Highway 78. 

“The Memorial Park was dedicated on November 11, 2020 (Veterans Day) to honor each of the six branches of the United States Armed Forces. The Memorial consists of a central plaza with six smaller plazas, one each for the existing branches Armed Forces, each of which features a seat wall, a single flag pole with the flag of the branch represented, the branch seal set into a stone marquee, engraved inspiring quotes, and the motto used by that Armed Force. The Central Plaza is the focal point of the memorial and contains three 35-foot flag poles and the brick sculpture featured in today’s mystery photo. The characters depicted in the statue, from left to right, represent the Army/Marines (Land), Navy/Coast Guard (Sea), and Air Force/Space Force (Air), although technically, there is no ‘air’ in space!” The photograph was taken by the GwinnettForum editor.
